So I know the opiate charts out there put codeine and tramadol as about the same when it comes to potency. I.e. 30mg codeine is equivalent to 30mg tramadol and 100mg of both is equivalent to 10mg morphine. Im not exactly sure how these comparison charts are compiled to be honest.... there has to be a considerable amount of subjectivity when comparing and contrasting opioid..... Thats fair enough though... and any opiate user with half a brain would be aware that its not as simple or straight forward as saying youll get the same euphoria from 500mg as codeine as you would from 50mg IV morphine.
Anyway, Im just curious what peoples opinions are on tramadol, and specifically tram vs an equiv. dose of codeine? I obtained 5 200mg limited release tramadol tablets last week. So as some of you might know (although I havent been around much lately) I have a considerable codeine tolerance, and need at least 600-800mg to make it worth while (for a decent sess... I can have considerably less and still 'enjoy' it and allow it to elevate my mood).
So anyway despite having to go to work in an hour I thought fuck it and had the 5 x 200mg tram pills. They were time release so I chewed them. I didnt get any opiate itch or warmth (although I usually sweat at work so who knows).... but I was in a WAAAY better mood the entirety of my 6hr shift (Im working part-time at a bottle shop in Uni break so Im basically walking around for 6hrs). Anyway, I guess I though 1000mg would have had a more overt opiate type of effect...
Maybe I didnt chew the tabs enough? I munched those fuckers up one-by-one to be sure and washed down with water. I ultimately put it down to set/setting etc.... I felt like if I was at home I could sit and feel real fuckin chill and maybe even nod off. A feeling I never get off codeine these days.. usually after a good codeine session Im energised and want to play video games or or whatever.
I have the option of getting more tramadol so Ill experiment some more. But definitely curious to read anyone elses opinion on tram compared with codeine. It definitely didnt come close to a good oxy sess which I was hoping for.
